Testicular localization of multiple myeloma: case report

Abstract

Testicular localisation of myeloma is exceptional. We report the case of a patient  managed for multiple myeloma for a period of 9 months. He then presented with testicular localisation of  his disease for which an inguinal orchidectomy was carried out. Despite the orchidectomy, disease progression was rapid  with severe bone pain and terminal kidney failure three months later. The diagnosis and the course of action are discussed in light of the current literature.
